Milwaukee Business Journal: Tech-related firms seen as ideal for Hub640 in Bon-Ton’s former Milwaukee HQ

Fast growing tech-related companies outgrowing their current office space are just the kind of tenants the owners of Hub640, the rebranded name of the Boston Store building at The Shops of Grand Avenue in downtown Milwaukee, are looking for.

Those tech-related candidates involve computer IT, software development, digital marketing and e-commerce services, said Dan Jessup, executive vice president of JLL and the broker seeking tenants for office space in the building. Other industries that are ideal for Hub640 are architecture, advertising and public relations firms, he said.
